After many hurdles and pitfalls along the way, a very special day has finally arrived for Diamond Tiara. It wouldn't be complete though, without an unwelcome appearance from a certain someone, who might be about to make her an offer she can't refuse.

A sequel to (wait for it) Diamond Tiara's Shock Announcement ,Diamond Tiara's Second Shock Announcement: Better Luck This Time and Diamond Tiara's Shock Announcement, Third Time's The Charm . Reading those in order before this is highly recommended (as well as hopefully, a lot of fun).

Featured from May 14-15 2018. Much appreciated!

After the events Of Fake It 'Til You Make It, Fluttershy has to say farewell to three very special 'friends'. But do they actually want to say goodbye?

Set directly after the most recent episode. Of course.

Featured from 8/4/18 to 10/4/18. Thanks all!

When Spike and Starlight get invited to a couple's night out with their friends, they agree just for the sake of doing something with their weekend. But they would never get caught up in the hype of romance like their friends have, though. They're way too cool for that, right?

...Right?

Trixie notices that she really, really, really, really really wants to see her friends kiss. There's nothing wrong with that, right?

...

... right?

Starlight Glimmer finds out that a part of her memory has been erased. And not only hers, Twilight Sparkle’s, too.

But when they have their memory restored, they have to deal with the terrible mistake they have made. They have to come clean with Starlight’s fillyfriend Trixie, and somehow figure out with how it could have happened if they want to salvage Starlight’s relationship.

Vivid memories of the night in question are not proving to be particularly helpful.

Starlight Glimmer had always been a difficult pony.

She's getting better, though! Really! Three years of living with the Princess of Friendship, one of the most beloved ponies in Equestria, is bound to rub off on a mare. Though Starlight continues to grapple with her insecurities and past mistakes, she never would have presumed she'd be free of the guilt - as it should be.

Yet over the years, she's come into her own as a devoted, passionate, and empathetic friend (despite a few bumps here and there).

But one day, like any other, a strange illness befalls Princess Twilight Sparkle. Starlight is driven to a foal's storybook for answers. Armed with her magic and faith, the ex-student follows a crumb trail leading to one reclusive group dwelling in the heart of an otherworldly bog. If there was any salvation for the pony who'd saved Starlight, it lay solely with them. Except when the time comes for payment to be collected, what's left behind is picked up by Twilight and her friends.

And Starlight doesn't want them to. For how can something so broken be put back together? She'd much rather save them all the trouble...

Why does Kettle Corn love painting circular shapes so much, as seen in the episode 'Marks And Recreation'? Here's my somewhat poignant take on the reasons behind her infatuation with all things circle-related. Don't forget to bring tissues...

Affection therapy: a new and innovative practice in Equestria wherein the patient/subject is calmed and relaxed through simple displays of platonic affection, such as ear scratches, nose boops, and belly rubs. It's surprisingly effective, and leaves the pony happy and content. The strangest thing, however, is that you, a simple human living in Ponyville, 'invented' this practice completely by accident.

*I wrote this a long time ago, before Every Little Thing She Does aired. The first chapter takes place between No Second Prances and that episode, and I decided to touch it up and release it now as an early Christmas gift to you guys, as a simple piece of cute, platonic fluff. More to come, too, when I find the time and inspiration.

There are so many things Fluttershy has a hard time explaining. Like, why the new stallion in town won't leave her alone; or, why she decided to break off her new relationship with Rarity after only a month; or, why she isn't sure she did the right thing. Maybe the right setting and the right dress will be enough to make everything clear. Maybe it will be enough...maybe.

The Mane Six, Starlight, and Trixie are on their way to a party in Canterlot on a dark and stormy night...so naturally their carriage breaks down and their only possible place to seek shelter is a scary, potentially haunted castle.

Will they survive the night?

INTENDED for this to go up on Nightmare Night, but life decided to say 'nope, you don't get to put that out when you want to', but finally finished.

I admit, this is NOT a type of story I normally do, hope it came out well.
